Disabling T-Mobile call forwarding

[Ol!ver]

How do I disable call forwarding on a T-Mobile phone? I want it so call waiting kicks in instead. I'm pretty sure call waiting is on, but the forwarding kicks in instead.

Cheers

EDIT: I want it to still go to voicemail if I don't answer, just want call waiting while I'm on another call.

What phone?

In your call divert menu, cancel all diverts. Then turn on the following voicemail diverts:
- Divert if busy
- Divert if not answered (usually number of seconds is configurable)
- Divert if unreachable

Enable call waiting


EDIT - you have an iPhone don't you? If so they don't have the menu options. I'll dig out the GSM codes that you can use instead. Hold on...

Aye, iPhone Cheers

Your 'destination' number is your voicemail number, which on T-Mob is personalized. (On other networks eg Orange, there is one number for everyone).

Try punching in *#61# [SEND] to see if it is already there

OK, I've disabled 'when busy' and I still get the 'active diverts' message when making a call. I expected that to go away.
